Student can access courses any time (24-7). Time commitment is approximately 90 minutes/day Monday through Friday completing weekly assignments, working on projects, and participating in online discussions. If students are unable to log in on a particular day, students must contact their VHS teacher using their "Private Topic" within their course.

The Summer School courses are online and part of the Virtual High School Program. They have been made available to students who want to get ahead or are looking for enrichment over the summer. The summer courses will use Desire2Learn learning management software, using VHS (non-Tulpehocken) teachers.

Students/Parents will be emailed their username and log in prior to the course start date. Parents are responsible for all fees associated with taking a VHS enrichment class. Parents must register and pay for the class on the VHS website. TASD is not funding these classes. Parents must also submit a summer enrichment form prior to June 16. Prior approval to take these courses must be sought in order for credit to be granted by TASD. TASD is not responsible for refunds of payment for courses not pre-approved. VHS has a refund policy and parents must work with VHS if a refund is requested.

Parents will be sent information by VHS on how to monitor student progress. Parents must provide reliable internet access (dial up access will not be sufficient) and a computer (NOTE: mobile devices such as iPads, iPhones, or Android devices cannot be used to submit assignments) that meets the minimum requirements for VHS courses (see these requirements).
